TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Ready for the 24 Hours of Nürburgring Toyota employees' team takes up the challenge with new Lexus LC
The Nürburgring 24 Hours #endurance Race is a demanding event that takes place over the course of 24 hours on a circuit that is 25km in length, has a maximum altitude difference of 300m, and features approximately 200 corners. TOYOTA GAZOO #racing has competed in the Nürburgring 24 Hours Race since 2007 with the aim of "refining people, refining cars", and has represented the roots of TOYOTA GAZOO #racing ever since. The employees who compete and grow in such a demanding environment embody Toyota's philosophy of "making ever-better cars" at the company's vehicle development bases. In addition, the #lexus LC, which will compete at the race, will incorporate advanced technologies *1 that will be refined and utilized in future production vehicles. Last year, TOYOTA GAZOO #racing entered the Nürburgring 24 Hours Race with a single #lexus RC. Wishing to erase the disappointment of its retirement in 2016, the team united and completed the race, securing second place overall in the SP-3T Class. This year, TOYOTA GAZOO #racing will compete with the new #lexus LC. Having carried out numerous tests in #japan since the end of 2017, and having listened to feedback both from the car and its drivers, the team has worked hard to overcome the vehicle's issues. As the speed of the car increases, so the load it experiences also increases; however, the team will compete with the goal of running for the full 24 hours.
